Was Mark Saunders Murdered By The Police?

MARK Saunders has gun. Mark Saunders is alone. A call to the police. Police come. There have been shots fired.

Mark Saunders has been drinking. Mark Saunders is divorce lawyer. Mark Saunders has been rowing with his wife.

Mark Saunders lives in a £2.2million flat in West London. Police arrive and shoot Mark Saunders in the brain, heart and liver. Officers hurl gas grenades into Mark Saunders’ fat and go in.

Mark Saunders is dead. Mark Saunders did not fire a shot at the police, nor, as the Sun, says, did he aim his gun at them.

Andy McNab, the Sun’s “security adviser” in a silhouette, says the police did the right thing. John O’Connor, professional nodding wooden top, a former head of the Flying Squad, says the police did the right thing.

So that’s it, then. The Sun’s experts say that shooting dead a man dead who has not fired first at you is the right thing.
